how a specific pH level would impact tyrosinase activity. First we added 4.0 mL of pH in each corresponding test tube and then added 0.5 mL of substrate (catechol) into each test tube. In the instructions it says to apply your 0.5 mL of tyrosinase (potato extract) as well but you have to blank the spectrophotometer before. The results from this experiment confirms that our hypothesis of a neutral pH displaying a stronger impact on tyrosinase is true. According to our results the pH levels at a more

of a Potato Mishal Hasan Abstract Students in Biology find it difficult to understand the concept of tonicity and osmolarity in a real time situation. In this investigation‚ several concentrations of sucrose were used to determine the osmolarity of a potato. It was found that the concentration of sucrose was close to 3.6 in the potato used showing that it was isotonic. Anything above caused the potato to gain weight showing that it was a hypotonic solution and anything below caused the potato to lose

cellular respiration to produce ATP. This process takes place in chloroplasts‚ which is a plastid that contains chlorophyll and involves two interlinked reactions‚ which are light dependent reactions and light independent reactions. Throughout our lab experiment‚ we focused on the affect access of light has on carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide levels decrease as oxygen levels increase and glucose is produced when light dependent reactions occur. Light energy is absorbed by photo

heart is abnormal. “An ECG records the electrical activity of the heart. The heart produces tiny electrical impulses which spread through the heart muscle to make the heart contract” (Kenny‚ 2015). There are two different types of cells. Autorhythmic (electrical) cell begins electrical activity and triggers contractile fiber‚ and contractile (myocardial) generates force to

The purpose of this lab was to hypothesize about membrane traffic in lab‚ explain the differences between the solutions hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ and isotonic and how they respond using the understanding of the cell membrane structure‚ types of transport mechanisms such as active‚ passive‚ diffusion‚ osmosis‚ and explain the movement of particles moving across the cell membrane. In this lab was divided into two parts. The first part was varying the concentration and the second part was varying the temperature

The Variation of Yeast Cells When Adding an Antibiotic Biology 1401- A October 21‚ 2013 Abstract. -- The main focus in this experiment was to find out if antibiotics affect yeast cells culture when added. The observation of the two cultures along with the yield of yeast cell reproduction between the two cultures was the sole purpose of the experiment; culture-A (- antibiotic) and culture-B (+ antibiotic). Our hypothesis stated whether antibiotic effects yeast cells cultures. This theory was

William Perez Cell Biology 2440 Lab on protein Myosin Proteins are chains of amino acids that perform the most important functions in living organism. Every protein will contain an amino group‚ carboxyl group‚ a different R group and an alpha carbon with two hydrogens. There are nine types of functions proteins can have‚ enzymes‚ motor‚ receptor‚ structural‚ storage‚ transport‚ signaling‚ and special purpose proteins(antibodies). There are four levels of protein structure‚ primary‚ secondary

Ans: The signs and symptoms the young graduate student presented‚ show evidence of Lyme disease. 2. What is the environmental pathway for the vector of this disease? Ans: The environmental pathway for the vector of this disease would be a forested habitat. The black-legged tick or the deer tick is the principle vector of this disease (Lyme

leaves prevent the large loss of water from leaf due to transpiration. For the lab‚ I observed six leaves collected from six different plants growing sporadically around the school campus. Using clear tape‚ sticking it to the bottom of each leaf‚ applying pressure‚ and carefully peeling the tape off for an imprint of the leaf. I stuck the tape onto a glass slide and placed it under the microscope and observed the cells. Adjusting the magnification down 1000x‚ it is noticeable that the stomata were
